Abstract

Abstract The solid state ionic conductor CuTi 2 (PO 4 ) 3 belonging to the Nasicon family has been synthesized; its lattice parameters have been obtained from X-ray diffraction patterns by comparison with isostructural NaTi 2 (PO 4 ) 3 . The characterization of this light brown solid has been completed by IR and UV-visible spectroscopies. Reverse ion exchange between Cu and Na has been shown to occur in a molten salt bath. These properties are discussed through the main structural features of the M I M′ IV 2 (PO 4 ) 3 family.
